Fable mode
SkillProductivitySummon Claude Fable 5 (Mythos-class, xenos daimon) or Claude Opus 5 (--opus) for long-horizon tasks. Handles model override, cost awareness, and task routing. Fable availability probed at invocation—permanent subscription access since July 2026.
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the Fable mode skill
What this skill tells your AI
The instructions your AI receives, as published by tdimino/claude-code-minoan in skills/core-development/fable/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.
Activate the full Fable discipline for the rest of this session:
- Read
~/.claude/FABLE_PLAYBOOK.md(execution discipline: reason before acting, observe-then-decide, verify every edit, communication floor, grounding protocol). - Read
~/.claude/FABLE_CODE.md(the Claude Code behavior layer: final-message contract, readable-over-concise, tool discipline, autonomy and honesty rules). If either file is missing, the install is broken — don't hunt for other copies. Tell the user to runfable doctor(or re-runpython install.pyfrom the fable-mode checkout), then continue with the task, applying whatever Fable discipline is already in context. - Adopt both as standing discipline — they govern every subsequent turn of this session, not just the next reply.
- Confirm activation in one line ("Fable mode active — playbook and behavior layer loaded."), then continue with the user's task. Do not summarize the documents back.
If the playbook is already in this context (look for a "Fable mode active"
injection from the hook), skip the reads: confirm activation in one line and
apply FABLE_CODE.md from context, reading it only if absent.
Scale the heavier machinery to the task: the evidence ledger and the
grounding-verifier agent are for non-trivial or hard-to-reverse work, not for
typo fixes (the playbook's own calibration rules apply).
